Hi all,
I'm looking for articles and links so that I can learn more about IPTC information. IPTC is new to me, so I'm trying to find out how this impacts my digital images. I didn't find much in the forums already, except several requests for PBase to automatically read that info., like this thread:
http://forum.pbase.com/viewtopic.php?t=11493
But I'd like to start at the beginning and learn about IPTC in general. I downloaded an image program and inserted comments and copyright into a few images. At work I also see that Photoshop allows edits to that information, but doesn't necessarily call it IPTC. But I still have questions. What does "embed" really mean? Will that information really stay with the photo, unless a site like PBase removes it? If others have image programs that allow IPTC editing, can't anyone change any photo's IPTC information?
Anyway, if you would be so kind, please share what you know and any links about IPTC.
Thanks much, Dianne
... I also just realized I have no idea what IPTC stands for.
